How to Pick the Ideal Air Conditioner for Your House 

Building a new house? Upgrading your present unit? Whatever the reason why you’re in the market for an air conditioner, you may soon learn you have more alternatives than you originally thought. Use this information to help you weigh four different options so you can select the ideal air conditioner in Fort Lauderdale. 

Central Air Conditioning 

This is what the majority of people call to mind when they imagine air conditioning for the full residence. Central air conditioning transfers air to every room through a system of ducts and registers. 

This could be right for you if: 

  • Your home has ductwork. 
  • You presently have a furnace or air handler. 
  • You want nearly silent, convenient cooling. 

Air-Source Heat Pump 

In the summer, heat pumps run just like central air conditioners. Many models can also provide heat in the winter. 

This might be right for you if: 

  • Your house has ductwork. 
  • Your reside in an area with warmer weather during the winter. 
  • You want one piece of equipment for all-season heating and cooling, as opposed to a standard furnace and air conditioner. 
  • Your home doesn’t use (or you don’t want) natural or propane gas. 
  • You’re looking for nearly noiseless, energy-efficient operation. 

Geothermal Heat Pump 

The ground beneath your feet stays at a stable 55 degrees throughout the year. A geothermal heat pump uses this ongoing supply of energy with underground loops for incredible heating and cooling efficiency. 

This might be good for you if: 

  • Your home has ductwork. 
  • You want a single piece of equipment for energy-efficient heating and cooling. 
  • You have enough land around your home for the buried loops. 

Ductless Mini-Split 

This is a second kind of heat pump. With ductless mini-splits, an outdoor unit links to an inside blower unit mounted to a wall or ceiling. This doesn’t require any ductwork and keeps your windows secure. 

This could be good for you if: 

  • Your home, or a new add-on to it, doesn’t come with ductwork. 
  • You’re looking for an energy-efficient approach for heating and cooling individual rooms. 
  • You want to get zoning for your home.
